Silkscreen on lanaquarelle paper - Published by Two Palms, New York // Blah, Blah, Blah (Inverse) by Mel Bochner, created in 2022, is a limited edition silkscreen that continues the artist’s exploration of language as a visual medium. This piece features the phrase BLAH repeated in large, textured lettering, arranged in a grid format. The worn, distressed appearance of the text, rendered in white against a dark, almost chalkboard-like background, adds a sense of rawness and urgency to the otherwise minimalist composition. Bochner's use of repetition and the banal phrase blah critiques the overabundance of words and empty speech in modern communication. The grid structure and stark contrasts invite viewers to reflect on the nature of language, its saturation in daily life, and its potential loss of meaning through overuse.

What is Postminimalism?
Postminimalism refers to a range of art styles that emerged in the 1960s, following the Minimalism movement. While Minimalism focused on simplicity and impersonality, Postminimalist artists retained some elements of Minimalism but also explored greater expressiveness, experimenting with new materials and techniques. This movement includes various forms of art such as conceptual art, body art, performance art, process art, and site-specific works. Postminimalism represents a shift toward more personal, tactile, and process-oriented approaches to art-making.
